Spanish Courses

SPA201 Beginning Spanish

[3–0, 3 cr.]

 A beginning level course in the Spanish language aimed at providing basic skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing, focusing on the use of basic standard structures.

SPA202 Spanish II

[3–0, 3 cr.]

The second beginning level course in Spanish designed for students who have already a primary contact with the language. The course aims at strengthening the vocabulary, the accent, and especially the grammar. The course gives a broader perspective on the reading, writing, and listening, on a higher and more sophisticated level building upon Spanish 201. Past and future times will be included to give the students the opportunity to understand and communicate in various situations and moments. Emphasis is placed on students’ use of the language in a faster reflex and response when it comes to “thinking in Spanish”. Completing this course will acquaint the students to the culture and open new horizons for students in different fields who are seeking jobs, not only in Spain and South America, but in all the cosmopolitan cities in the world. A communicative content task-based approach is used and opportunities are given to participate in activities and events.
